jada interview

me: "what do you think about mommy?"

jk: a very long pause then, "ummmmmm...i don't know."
{not a reassuring start}

i ask: "what is your favorite food that mommy cooks?"

j: "i love chicken. i love rice. mommy is a good cooker. you are not a bad cooker. you always give us food and drinks. you always are the best cooker. you do my hair. you look beautiful for me and brooke. so, i want you to come to my school."
{i guess topics are hard to handle at this age}

i ask: "why do you love jesus?"

j:"cause jesus loves you. jesus love you. then him there was nothing and he is asleep. they yell, 'wake up there is thunder.' jesus wake up. him friends were scared and he said 'stop storm' and then there was no rain. 'be still thunder.' and then there was no thunder."

jk: "i want to tell about my friends;
i love eva cause i wish she could come back. {eva moved right before christmas}
chase is new friend. ellie took a toy away from him. and she got in trouble. she took away from me. she is not letting us share. she did not give it back to me. i tell my teacher and she called her mom. and then, she got in trouble.
ellie is nice and she got a tissue for me. and she said "i love you". and she is my boyfriend.

me: "no ellie is a girl. doe mean chase?"
jk: "no ellie."
me: "you can't have a girl for a boyfriend...she's a girl, not a boy."
jk: "ok, whatever."

i love these little moments...where i learn things i didn't know before.
